TIE IRON INDUSTRY.

Tho amicable settlement of the controversy
between the AmaIgamatcd Association of Iron
and Steel Workers and the employers, upon the
basis of an advance of 10 per cent In wages
without the other changes TO which the man
ufacturcrs objected, removes ono OF tho most
serious pcrils that have threatened the busl-
ness prosperity of this great industry. a pro-
loupcd strike would have involved enormous
losses by employers and by workmcn The
employers might have recovered part OF tho
loss by an advance in the prices of products.
but that advance would have checked the pros
pcrity Of the many branches of industry in
which iron and steel materials are used and
it would have greatly increased foreign imports.

The employers and the men have done wisely

ARE ANIMALS HAPPY

A writer in "1hc Nineteenth Century discusses
this question at length. His conclusions, however,
are vitiated by the narrowness of his outlook.
Like many II not most writers on psychologist
questions, he sets out with the gratuitous assump-
tion that intelection among animals is different
not alone in kind. but in degree from that of the
human family. Now, concerning this no certainty
is attainabe, but such evidence exists does not
warrant the distinction confidently made by
this writer. "What we argue" as Pope says.
.'but from what we know How can we Judge
whether animals are happy or not but by observing
such of their expressions able to interpret
in terms of our own emotional experienced When

The increase in some kinds OF imports is
mainly because of fraudulent undervaluat ons.
which Treasury officials have not the capacity
or the disposition 10 prevent, but in other kinds
il is because Of rulings Of tho Treasury, De-
partmcnt which virtually nullify the lays OF
Congress. The increasing flood Of foreign
materials, as it happens, comes just at time
TO lessen the home demand for a greatly in
creased supply from new and costly establish
ments. 1t was said, for example, that now
works in the Southern States would add at
the rate of 100000 tons yearly before tho
present year closed to the quantity produced
in this country. But Just when this new iron
is offered in the market, there comes into the
country from Great Britain alone 54,69S tons
moro iron in May, and 272, SOB tons more iron
in five months ending with May. an increase at
the rate of about $4,000 tons for year. II

profit on their investments they will find it
necessary soon to secure an American instead

Many Of them exhibit delight in their surroundings
in their own strength or beauty or activity. In
the planest ways Havo we any right to sup ose
that these manifestations really mean something
different from what they appear to-; that they
may after all not be Indicative Of happiness
Surely there is no ground for such q CONJECTURE.
II we find animals showing pleasure by gestures
and expressions which suggest to us nothing but
pleasure, we are justified in forming but one
inference. Mind In animals shows itself for Tho
most part after the usual fashions OF humanity l.
not biased we recognize in ts demonst
familiar process But because we have only
dumb show to Judge by for the meaning of these
our poor relations. Of us deny them any share
in our intelligence and try to write Them down
as mere automata, acting bllndly and half con-
sciously. All such theories are air-drawn and rest
upon no scientific foundation. Animal psychology
indeed is sealed book to man, but partly because
he refuses to avail himself of the aids to compre-
hension which Nature puts within his reach OF
course if animals are mere machines 1t Is nonsense
to talk of their happiness. for happiness imp
consciousness and some perception and reflect n.
But there is no more ground for the mac. me
hypothesis in regard to animals than in regard to
man himself, and those who reject Descartes
cannot with any consistency apply his doctrine
to the lower creation. II we trust to our own
observation, natural impressions and express IN.
we must believe that animals enjoy life very
much men enjoy life, and that the causes
Of their happiness are commonly allied to those
which produce similar feelings in human beings
Perhaps this Is as far we can go safely, but IL
takes us at once beyond the territory of tho
automatists and leaves lis in position from which
rational and Ineligible explanation OF animal
life is possible.
